Plumbing
Low water pressure
Low pressure can appear at one faucet, one bathroom, the whole house or only on hot water. This difference helps identify the cause.
Possible causes
- clogged aerator or filter;
- partially closed valve;
- faulty or incorrectly adjusted pressure reducer;
- leak in the installation;
- booster pump or street supply issue.
What to observe
- cold water, hot water or both affected;
- one faucet or all points affected;
- pressure varies during the day;
- noises, vibrations or visible leaks.
Useful information
Mention whether you have booster pump, boiler, pressure reducer or filters. Photos of faucets and technical area help.
